You'll assist in developing, implementing, and maintaining robust health and safety policies and procedures. Think of it as the foundation on which our award-winning customer service is built!

Your day-to-day tasks will include:

• Keeping us squeaky clean: Assisting with the creation and maintenance of health and safety documentation, including risk assessments, method statements, and accident/incident reports.
• Identifying potential hazards: Conducting regular safety inspections of the warehouse and equipment, keeping a watchful eye out for any potential leaks (metaphorical, of course!).
• Training the team: Providing training and guidance to warehouse colleagues on health and safety matters, ensuring everyone knows the drill when it comes to safe working practices and emergency procedures.
• Investigating mishaps: Investigating accidents and incidents, gathering information, and helping to develop preventative measures to keep them from happening again.
• Staying compliant: Assisting in managing health and safety compliance, ensuring we adhere to all legal requirements and company standards.
• Spreading the safety word: Supporting the implementation of health and safety initiatives and campaigns within the warehouse.
• Keeping track: Maintaining accurate records of health and safety data and statistics.
• Team player: Participating in health and safety meetings and committees as required.

The ideal candidate will have:

• A basic understanding of health and safety legislation and regulations.
• A meticulous eye for detail and excellent organisational skills.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to keep everyone informed and on the same page.
• The ability to work effectively as part of a team.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.
• Previous experience in a warehouse environment is a plus (but not a must-have!).
• Relevant health and safety qualifications (e.g., NEBOSH General Certificate) are highly regarded, but not essential.

If you're ready to take your career to the next level and ensure a safe and thriving environment for our team, we want to hear from you!
